Endura Perpetual Calendar search

Jul 21, 2018,21:39 PM
 

Currently looking for a new movement for my Endura Perpetual Calendar. It’s a 1 jewel ETA 425. The watch is from the 70’s and from what I’ve read is now owned by Swatch. I got the watch off EBay with a description that said it wasn’t running. I popped the back off and it started ticking away. I knew it was on borrowed time and I got a few weeks out of it and at least one compliment on it every time I wore it. I can’t find the movement anywhere and I’m really in love with the watch. Please help!

Understood, unless you are well practiced I would still suggest you get an opinion from a watch maker that may suggest parts replacement or something you may have missed.

Unless pinions / jewels are worn or the hairspring or gears are damaged it may be a case of set up. Good luck.

Cool watch.

Good luck on the fix. M4

Not a Swatch Group brand.

Swatch Group has a company that is named Endura, but they do not sell watches under their own name. They make private label watches for many companies. Many of the "fashion label" watches are made for the fashionistas by Endura. I doubt they will be able ...
